RAID Security and Scalability
RAID 1 mode provides disk-failure proof, hardware-level data protection. If a single disk fails, you can replace it without turning off your appliance. Just swap in a new one without losing a single byte of data. Whatever the challenge, zero data loss, zero work interruption. You can even opt for the diskless model* and simply add more storage capacity as your business grows. This lets you reduce your initial investment while ensuring a long-term solution.
Automated NAS Backup
Take the hassle and potential for human error out of backing up your NAS. The Dashboard lets you replicate the contents of your 2big NAS onto an attached USB/eSATA hard drive. Or vice-versa. Create automatic backup jobs tailored to each of your attached devices. Backups can also be configured to start automatically each time a USB hard drive is connected to the 2big NAS. You can also use your NAS to back up another NAS, whether it's on the local network or remote**. Even configure a nightly backup of your NAS onto a backup server in a completely different building.
Faster Internal File Sharing
Boost your business productivity with up to 100MB/s*** transfer speeds. The 2big NAS is powered by a 2GHz processor and the highly efficient Ext4 file system. This combination optimizes file transfers between employees. Everyone in the office can share files quickly and easily, whether they are on a PC, Mac, or Linux system. Define whether a folder should be private or public within the company. For private folders, closely control access by setting user- or group-level permissions. It's surprisingly easy. Whatever your office's internal file sharing needs, the 2big NAS delivers fast and flexible accessibility.
